ALCHEMY

ALCHEMY

A Poem by Rene Velez
"

Philosopher Stone

"
Alchemists, elements,
formulations beyond time,
Magnum Opus,
symbolized perfection
focused disconnections
enlightened bliss of
the third eye...
Prima Materia
elemental strife
elixir of life
transmutational criteria

mystic remedy
red dust of eternity
calculations of infinity
intangible by human hands
all knowing refined
intuition of the heart and mind
spiritually designed
Adams stone lost to mankind

left hand, the golden branch
diamond and ruby leaves
right hand, long life, wisdom,
the seven steps of the emerald
tablet of Hermes
all hail the king and Queen.

Just because you have a great knowledge of Phsyck,does not mean that you are not still tripping.Great poem.I would like atoms stone better,or even atoms apple.

This reminds me of a hubbub of musical interludes way, way out in space, different instruments, each playing their own tune between solid matter(s) where the Entire makes for harmony. Your writing takes a reader away from gentle thought into an examination of unknown ones.

An escapist's dream, maybe - having learne most but, still adventuring?

Loved the short style of this piece, very different. Painted many pictures in my mind, found it enlightening. Well written.

I love the use of words. The words create thoughts and amazing poetry. So many question create by your thoughts.

I was a soldiers. I learn many years ago. Human life mean nothing to a government. I went to meeting where men were treated like cattle on the way to slaughter. Old world had changed. Not for the best. Thank you for the outstanding poetry.

Whoa, that skipped right off the vinyl.....

This read like a skipping stone across the metaphysical universe. Maybe you should play it safe and stick to erector sets and tinker toys.... just for the time being. lol
take it low and slow....

"Just an average writer aspiring to greatness?" Not based on what I have read from the philosopher's stone...I find this musical enlightenment of a sophisticated mindful soul...
